So It was time for new bushings on the FX.

This is why the front right wheel was poking out a little more than the left.


Bling Bling


Front end.


Something is missing.


The backs too the longest. All the bushings had to be burnt out, I killed two pullers trying to get them out.


I think Kyle has OCD, he is cleaning his suspension right now.


Jay Dee Umm TRD rear brakes.


Remember, lower the car to the ground before you tighten the new bushings, otherwise they will tear. Oh, ask Lou, I love using spare tires for everything.


It aint't a 2JZ but it was buy one get one free and they are pretty damn good too. And you are required to drink them and quote F&F1.

We started last night, but didn't get much done because I broke both pullers.

So this morning with the propane torch we started to burn out the bushings. That worked out so well I am never going to try to press them out ever again. But there was so much work, mainly in the rear because of the multi-link.

They are not Rota's, they are something else, but the slipstream style.
